Layer Definitions
Instructions
When determining pedagogical layers:
- Assess the content's AI involvement level
- Match to the appropriate layer (L1-L5)
- Ensure prerequisites from lower layers are met
- Validate layer progression is logical
Layer Overview
| Layer | Name | AI Involvement | Student Role |
|---|---|---|---|
| L1 | Manual | None | Full manual work |
| L2 | Collaboration | Assisted | AI helps after understanding |
| L3 | Intelligence | Templated | Using AI templates/skills |
| L4 | Spec-Driven | Guided | AI generates from specs |
| L5 | Full Autonomy | Autonomous | AI-driven end-to-end |
Layer Selection Guide
Choose L1 when:
- Teaching foundational concepts
- Student must understand without AI assistance
- Building mental models
Choose L2 when:
- Student understands the concept
- AI can provide extensions or variations
- Collaboration enhances learning
Choose L3 when:
- Teaching reusable patterns
- Introducing AI templates and skills
- Building on L1-L2 understanding
Choose L4 when:
- Working with specifications
- AI generates implementation from design
- Integration of multiple components
Choose L5 when:
- End-to-end autonomous workflows
- Student orchestrates AI agents
- Capstone projects
